Chapter 175 Clash of Kings [Second Update]
Lion!
Just when countless people were submissive to the domineering presence of King Kuihu, the female reporter's words jolted them awake.
The live broadcast camera was shaken abruptly.
An extremely robust African Lion burst out of the forest and quickly jumped onto the Skywalk, running swiftly toward the mountain peak.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The narrow walkway seemed like flat ground to him.
What was most astonishing was that other animals were following the African Lion.
Lynx, Honey Badger, Chimpanzee, Giant Panda!
They were very close to each other, clearly not enemies!
"What kind of combination is this? A lion, giant panda, chimpanzee, honey badger? And an odd cat?" the female reporter exclaimed, trying to contain her excitement.
The internet exploded once again.
Male lion versus Northeast Tiger!
It was like Mars crashing into Earth!
The rivalry between lions and tigers had always been the most contentious topic in the animal kingdom!
And there was no equal!
The live broadcast comments started flooding the screen:
"The true king has arrived!"
"Epic! The battle of the century is about to unfold!"
"Holy shit! The male lion!"
"Has this lion mutated? It's so damn strong!"
"Here it comes! Here it comes! After your song concludes, I make my entrance, awaited by a thousand calls!"
"It used to be a king, but it died under the claws of the Northeast Tiger."
"Move aside! My brother Simba is about to go big!"
…
The appearance of Chu Ge caused the debate over the Beast King to reach new heights, as countless people started arguing about who was stronger, the lion or the tiger.
At the foot of Huashan.
In front of the parking lot, a large projection screen was erected for all tourists wanting to enter the mountain to watch.
The crowd was vast, and everyone was excited by the male lion on the screen.
Chu Yingying, Han Yujuan, and Chu Feiqiang were among them.
Unable to dissuade Chu Yingying and having nothing else to do, the couple could only join her to see what was happening.
Watching the male lion on the screen running fearlessly along the Skywalk and listening to the surrounding cheers, they became exhilarated as well.
"It's definitely Arno! It's absolutely him!"
Chu Yingying grabbed Chu Feiqiang's arm, shouting excitedly.
Chu Feiqiang also felt his blood pump with excitement; the male lion indeed looked magnificent.
Especially with the Northeast Tiger's previous rampage, killing many wild animals, the appearance of this male lion was exceptionally dramatic.
Han Yujuan seemed a bit dazed.
For some reason, watching the male lion on the screen, she felt inexplicably nervous, and couldn't help worrying about it.
"Arno is very strong, it can definitely beat that tiger! It could win against the Lion King even when it wasn't fully grown yet!" Chu Yingying jumped up and down with excitement.
A nearby tourist chuckled and said, "Young girl, you haven't seen how ferocious the Northeast Tiger was earlier. It was extremely vicious. Although this lion is strong too, it can't possibly be a match for the Northeast Tiger."
Chu Yingying glanced at him but did not respond.
Everyone was discussing the strength of this male lion.
Unlike the lions they were familiar with, this male lion had exaggerated muscles and taut skin, not the flabby appearance like the lions in documentaries.
Its running conveyed a sense of epic vitality.
…
On the edge of the mountain wall, Chu Ge was running quickly along the Skywalk.
He seemed fast, but he was far from reaching his peak speed.
The walkway was too narrow, and a slight misstep could lead to falling off the cliff.
Above, the roar of King Kuihu was heard.
"Lion, you've finally arrived! Come on up! What follows will be your nightmare!"
King Kuihu said with a wild laugh, his eyes filled with ferocity.
He was already fantasizing about the scene of Chu Ge dying at his feet!
Chu Ge's eyes flickered as he began to pick up speed.
Gu Tianjiao could barely keep up.
Arno followed closely behind.
Ye Wukong and Nangong found it more challenging.
"Boss... slow down!"
Nangong called out, his voice tinged with despair.
Fear only struck after reaching the Skywalk.
This five-hundred-plus-meter-long skywalk was truly a test of one's limits.
None of them dared to look down, afraid they might get dizzy and then fall off.
Falling from an altitude of over two thousand meters, even the strongest body would shatter to pieces.
All eyes were on Chu Ge.
He was getting closer to the mountain summit.
Two hundred meters!
One hundred and fifty meters!
One hundred meters!
Fifty meters!
Countless hearts rose to their throats.
Some with obsessive-compulsive tendencies even worried Chu Ge might slip and fall.
King Kuihu did not wait at the end of the walkway, he patiently awaited Chu Ge's arrival at the top.
He even lay down.
This posture was undoubtedly a king's disdain in the eyes of humans.
The Northeast Tiger showed no regard for the African Lion.

"So arrogant!"
The Special Warfare Team Leader stood on the edge of the cockpit, and exclaimed.
Tang Qiusheng was behind him, still exhaling clouds of mist.
"This tiger is very strong, the lion has a high chance of dying," Tang Qiusheng mentioned leisurely.
The Special Warfare Team Leader turned back to look at him, surprised, and asked, "Really? Why do I feel this lion is also very strong?"
In appearance, the Male Lion seemed more handsome, without lacking in power and dominance.
Without the two beasts clashing, it was hard for him to determine who was larger.
"Heh, let's wait and see," smiled Tang Qiusheng, appearing utterly nonchalant.
The Special Warfare Team Leader was skeptical.
He turned back around, and Chu Ge was nearly at the summit.
Close to the summit, Chu Ge didn't lose his reason and slow down.
Assured that King Kuihu had no intention of stopping him, he easily jumped onto the top of South Peak.
King Kuihu watched him from the opposite side of Skyward Pool, the two separated by less than five meters.
Now people could finally discern who was larger.
Clearly, King Kuihu was a size larger than Chu Ge.
In front of King Kuihu, Chu Ge's exaggerated muscles didn't seem so shocking.
A standoff between tiger and lion!
The whole world fell silent.
The countless viewers before the live broadcast held their breath.
The crowd at the foot of Huashan fell silent.
Everyone stared intently at Chu Ge and King Kuihu.
Who would become the Beast King?
Gu Tianjiao and Arno arrived beside Chu Ge one after another, and soon after, Ye Wukong and Nangong also arrived, out of breath.
The five determined individuals stood in a row, all glaring fiercely at King Kuihu.
"Oh? Your lapdogs are still alive, quite an accomplishment!"
King Kuihu taunted, provoking Chu Ge and the others without any reservation, showing no regard for them.
Many netizens were stunned by this scene.
What kind of lineup was this?
How did these five animals come together?
It's unscientific!
"Wow! There's my Buzzcut Brother! Disregard life and death, fight if you disagree!"
"Impressive, the national treasure leads the formation. The Northeast Tiger must lose!"
"This is what a Beast King looks like, all his followers are strong!"
"Remember this Giant Panda, it's a king, Giant Pandas were Chi You's mounts, not as simple as they look."
"Stop kidding, the Northeast Tiger clearly has an overwhelming presence!"
The barrage erupted again, the appearance of the Giant Panda and the Honey Badger invigorated them.
However, something even more shocking happened!
The Chimpanzee stepped forward, adopting a martial artist's stance, standing on one leg, squatting slightly, hands formed into palms, one in front and one behind.
"Idiot! Come here, and eat a set of my Wing Chun!"
Ye Wukong taunted, with a scornful expression.
